Los Altos: Real Estate

Los Altos is a highly desirable place to live, thanks to the family-friendly environment, top-tier schools and close proximity to major employers in Silicon Valley. The city is also only about 40 miles south of San Francisco, offering even more opportunities and things to do to residents. Located in the beautiful Bay Area, Los Altos real estate is known for offering more value in terms of housing prices than some neighboring communities. Los Altos real estate experts report that buyers can get upwards of 15 to 20 percent “more house” for their money in this city than in nearby communities. If that’s not a good enough reason to buy a home here, just consider the city’s high quality of life and small-town atmosphere. In Los Altos, you can enjoy the benefits of a small community with all the conveniences that the surrounding area brings you.

In Los Altos, you have the choice of living in several communities, including Country Club, North Los Altos, Woodland Acres/The Highlands, South Los Altos, Loyola Corners and Rancho.
